Lessons/Training
RIDING LESSONS:
Marika offers riding lessons to adults and children regardless of skill level. These 1 hour sessions include
an emphasis on safety, proper horsemanship, and always include a good dose of fun and Marika structures each lesson according
to the particular rider's ability and confidence level.
From the early steps of learning to balance properly to advanced
reining or cow horse techniques, Marika has the knowledge and experience to effectively grow her student's abilities.
HORSE TRAINING:
Marika accepts horses in training from the very "green" horse to more advanced work. Using soft hands,
the young horse is taught the basics of moving forward, turning and stopping Also ground manners and respect for people
are taught at this stage.
Depending on the horse's level of previous training, more advanced training is available including
circle exercises, patterns, advanced lead changes, rollbacks, spins and slides.
Marika's goal through training and lessons
is to bring the horse and rider closer together by improving the horse's rideability and the owner's riding skills.
